FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

Would you like to play a game of Mafia? The subforum is always open to new players.

Having wrapped up a game offsite, I'm ready to join the next game that starts, which should be Local Emergency.

You could also sign up for a slot in King of the Mafia, though it might take a while to get to join that.

The more important question is, how the hell have you not heard of it before?  :P


In other news, mafia presented to me a problem that even my probability/statistics professor couldn't (quickly) tell me how to solve (quickly). So there's that.  :D

What's the problem? Unless it's an active game... in which case, What's the problem, answer when the game is done (on a postcard, please)?

Arguably.  This game is more like an x86 assembler than a big iron assembler.  It's funny because in some ways it's harder because of the limited instruction set and restriction on lines of code.  And, like, you only have 1.5 registers instead of 16. 

Only 4 more achievements to go! 

EDIT:  Oh, and it's annoying the hell out of me because the format in the game is <instruction> <source>,<destination> which is ass-backwards from z/Architecture.  (and apparently x86 too?)

Actually, I had heard of it when it came out, but I only just recently bought/played it.

Ooh I've been playing that. I managed a shockingly inefficient solution to the chequered image puzzle. My friend got it in 1094 cycles, and I managed something like 11,000 cycles.

It's an active game, and you'll be able to read discussion on it later. :P

OK I've finally created something.

Here is a random generator of mafia roles. At the moment it gives them a completely disconnected name and the roles aren't balanced in any way, but it should be fun and varied. Sometime the powers are of limited utility:

Insane Fungus: Once per night you can redirect the actions of yourself to another player.

Magnet: Once per night you can give this ability to yourself.

The Mafioso: Once per night you can redirect the actions of a dead player to another player.

Evil Gambler: Once per night you can infect yourself.

Gremlin: Once per day you can perform the same action as your target on a dead player.

Though sometimes they're surprisingly good:

Filth: Once per game you can perform the same action as everyone targeting your target on your target.

Beta Gambler: Twice per night you can block all actions performed by yourself.

WTF :o :o

Oh, this is amusing.

Kevorkian: Once per day you can prime or set alight a dead player. - Totally legit in some zombie-themed game.
Overeager Shaman: Once per night you can infect everyone targeting your target. - Potential to be awesome.
Philantropist: Once per game you can swap a random ability with an ability belonging to yourself. - Whee.
The Fungus: Once per night you can learn the name of your target. - I don't even ...
The Cheater: Once per night you can give this ability to everyone targeting your target. - Everyone gets a prize!

Although, this gives me an amusing idea for a game which would be totally broken.  Every day and night phase everyone gets a random one-shot ability that expires at phase transition.  Polymorphic Mafia =P
